The Swiss Re Foundation reflects the social and humanitarian values of Swiss Re. Our mission is to build societies that are able to withstand and recover from health, environmental and economic risks. We do this where Swiss Re operates or intends to do so in future, as well as in developing countries outside its footprint.

With our new strategy for 2019-2021, we’ve strengthened our focus on three areas where we can leverage Swiss Re’s expertise the most: natural hazards and climate risk management, access to health and income opportunities and innovation to build resilience. To focus our efforts and increase our impact, we’re phasing out water as a focus area and with it the ReSource Award programme, which will end in 2020.
